| WHAT should i convert my 35 gallon HEX tall into???? HEy everyone thought i would have you guy give me your opinion on what i should do with my extra tank.
right now its running with about 35 pounds of rock, 2 clowns (very territorial), purple gramma ( i believe its called that?), and not the proper lighting for coral ( one weak A$$ coralife lght )
1st. i was thinking of changing into a fish only tank with like a trigger and some other non reeef safe fish, but it think it maybe to small for that. not sure though?
2nd. i was thinking of doing a seahorse tank. have no clue really where to begin there??? dont know if anyone on here knows anything about that?
3rd. getting a skimmer and proper lighting and keeping another reef tank.......most liky fraggin stuff in my 75 putting it in there watch it grow
4th. straight frag tank and sell the frags
those were the ideeas that i was thinking of doing, but i will not take it down and put the stuff in their in my main tank
1 i have already to many fish in my main tank cause i had to move 2 clowns into it because the clowns in the 35 were beating the crap out of them and killed one. very territorial clowns
so let me here your opinions on what i should do |

| #1 sounds good, just do the research on which fish will be comfortable in that size tank. #2 Seahorses are very delicate, if your an exp'ed reefer, sounds good. #3 you already have that with your 75, unless you want 2 tanks. #4 If you know what your doing, yes.
You could always turn it into a QT. _________ 9YR OLD 90G/55g custom sump/refug Mag18 Aquac 180skimmer 692w MH AC jr,yel&kole tang,midas&convict blenny,B&G chromies,Blk/yel fin chromie blackcap,nemo,neon goby,6line; Blastomussa Merleti,Acan ,BUBBLE,Torch,LTA, Acropora(2) Moon, assort zoas, yel& G star polyps, P&B ricordia, montiporas, cup&candy corals, xenias,B/G mush,flower ane(2), cherry red mussa, dusters,cleaning crew.. |

| The only thing I have to add is this, how deep is the 35g deep hex? Past 24" you need to have MH lights to do fragging properly I beleive, T5 may work but PC's definetly won't

| I'd do seahorses but that's me  You need to be very dedicated to keep them though and will have to have somebody come by to feed them every day if and when you go on vacation. |
